[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 248308, member: 4485"] This was my preferred way to run the SD2200D mainly due to no quick track button. I'm pretty sure there is a post on here somewhere by Nenad explaining the advantages of using tracking in some situations much better than I can. Basically my thoughts are in ground with a lot of variable mineralisation it can be beneficial to use tracking like MGH suggests above - flick to fixed or hold the quick track button in once a target is located. Like mono coils the constant use of fixed seems to be ingrained to a lot of GPX users, myself included when I had one. In hindsight the ability to use tracking or DD coils or other little used settings to suit individual situations is one of GPX strong points & a lot of people get stuck on set ways of running - which is fine - but if I ever get a GPX again experimenting to find settings that suit myself or if I thought a DD coil will run better in certain ground would be things I'd do more rather than just follow the flock.
